Builders of Authority

Welcome back, everyone! 

Due to a guest cancellation, I’ve decided to role with a solo episode. 

The timing is great, because we just ended an incredible Q1. 

I’m making a YouTube video about the quarter itself right now. 

But today, I want to dive into what I’ve learned over the last 6 months since re-launching my digital marketing agency. 

6 Lessons is what I’ll call it. 

1. Always do the right thing

2. Never lose sight of your cus...

Today’s episode is with someone who is a client of our digital marketing agency, and has been since October. 

And the way that it all came about was the perfect storm of personal branding gone right. 

Nearly a year prior I added him on Facebook, and I didn’t cold DM or pitch him ever. I simply said if he ever needed help with digital marketing to let me know. 

He reached out, and we had a conversation. 

It started with Facebook Ads, an...

Today I’m joined by someone that I met over 3 years ago. We connected on LinkedIn and ended up grabbing coffee a few different times. 

He & I talked a lot about life and business and realized we knew a lot of the same people. St. Louis is a small town at the core where everyone knows everyone. 

One of the times we met, he had been telling me about a new idea for a business venture that he and his business partner had. It ended up...

Back in 2011, I took my first business class in college. 

I had heard about this professor who had a really innovative way of teaching inside of the business school at Columbia

After taking that class, I ended up having quite a few classes with him and he ended up becoming my Advisor for a little while. 

It was in 2012 during my junior where I took my first entrepreneurial class with him, created my first business plan and learned tha...

Today’s episode is with a guest who I’ve known for about 4 years now. We met in a digital marketing mastermind that I was a part of previously. 

He’s someone that I highly respect because of his track record in the digital marketing agency and SEO, and his results and expertise speak for themselves. 

I now have a pretty good detector as to who is real and who is fake. 

Today’s guest is as real as it gets. 

My guest is Adam Chronister. ...

Today we have a virtual episode coming to you via Zoom.

This guest and I had the opportunity to meet back in June of last year at The Thing in Nashville. We shared the stage speaking at that event, and then also The Thing in Orlando back in November. 

She is someone that always lights up the room and leaves the stage impacting the audience by providing education and strategies to help you win at life and business.

My guest today is Di...

Today’s episode is with a guest whom I met at The Thing in Orlando back in November. There’s been a lot of recent guests who I met at that event and they’ve all been amazing episodes, and I know today will be just the same.

I will probably not do this guest justice by introducing her and her practice and how it helps business owners, so I will let her do it. 

My guest today is Chrisy Waters Forsyth. She is a spiri...

I don’t know how it took us this long to schedule this episodes, but I’m grateful we are doing this today. 

About a year and a half ago, I got connected to this individual. 

Since then, he has joined our BOA Mastermind, became a digital marketing client, and one of my biggest supporters. He’s a friend, someone I can go to and get advice from, and someone I look up to. A few weeks ago we had the chance to grab dinn...

Today is going to be a great episode. I have known this individual for over 5 years now. 

He and I met in a group where we were learning digital marketing way back in the day. 

Since then, we have been active in Apex together, and now he is a 1-1 coaching client of mine and a member of our BOA Mastermind.  

My guest today is Lewis Vandervalk. He is the Owner & CEO at Blue Crocus Solutions. He is a hus...

It’s been a minute since we had an in person episode. And today’s episode has an interesting back story, that I’m really excited to dive into. 

On New Years Eve I was scrolling social media and saw this individual posting about his daily life in college. I like following trends and seeing what’s working, and it was clear that this was. Then I realized he had 25,000 followers on IG. Then I realized he was a student at Wash ...

Today is going to be a great episode. I recently met today’s guest at the end of last year through a mutual connection. We had the opportunity to hop on a zoom call and get to know each other and learn more about what we were up to in business. 

We both quickly realized that we knew a lot of the same people, and had both done some pretty incredible things in the digital marketing agency space. 

Finding people like...

Today I’m excited about the opportunity to interview someone I had the chance to meet back in June of last year while speaking at event with him. Since then we have spoken at multiple events together, and I’ve just really enjoyed having this person in my support system. He may not know it, but I’m a huge of fan of his, constantly learning from him, and respect the heck out of him. Recently I had the chance to be on his podcast, and...

Today is going to be a great episode. I’m interviewing someone I’ve only briefly talked back and forth over messenger with, but I know that she’s going to be an incredible guest. 

She and I are alumni of the Coach to Coaches program with Ben Newman, and when I saw her bio and started consuming some of her content, I knew she would be a perfect fit for this show. 

My guest today is Kristy Kuhl. Kristy is a High-Per...

Today is an episode that I’ve been looking forward to for quite some time now. 

I’ve been following this person since I went full-time with my agency back in 2020. 

We have been connected online for a few years and I’ve consumed so much of his content, but it wasn’t until April 2024 that I got to meet him in person when we shared the stage at SEO Spring Training.

He is someone that I look up to, not just ...

Today I’m joined by someone that I got the opportunity to share the stage with back in November at The Thing in Orlando. 

And let’s just say I’m really glad I went before her, because she is an absolutely phenomenal speaker who brings the energy. It would have been tough to have followed her. 

I’m excited to interview her here today and learn more about her, and what she does. 

My guest today is Angie Cal...

Today I’m joined remotely by someone I just met online a few months ago.

Last month I had the chance to be on his podcast, and since then have continued to learn more about him and his company.

He and his company are working on some really exciting things with AI, and I’m excited to dive into that even further today. 

My guest today is Spencer Harman. He is the President at WAVV. 

Connect with Sp...

Today’s guest is someone who I’ve been following for awhile online, and had the opportunity to meet in person last month and share a stage with at The Thing in Orlando. 

He has millions of followers across all the various social media platforms, and is hands down the most influential from a metric standpoint of any guest we have had on the podcast (and we have had some really great guests).

His story is quite incr...

Today we have a solo episode coming to you, that’s going to help you prepare for 2025. 

This episode is being recorded in December, but will air on 1/2. 

If you haven’t planned for 2025 yet, you are behind the ball, but it’s not too late. You have a chance to still do it. 

-Take an inventory of where you were at in 2024
-Reverse Engineer where you want to go in 2025
-Stop, start, continue
-Pla...

Today we have another special episode lined up for you. I met today’s guest earlier this year online, and then we have now spoke at some of the same events together. 

I was a guest on his podcast earlier this year, and we are going to be doing some training and education stuff coming up in the new year. 

He’s one of the most down to earth people you will ever met, and just an overall great guy. 

My guest ...
